No specs have revealed, and there’s no sign of a release date and, as Engadget reports, the phone is only appearing on the UK website at present, which hints at a European launch.

Big brother

The launch of the Galaxy S4 mini follow’s last year’s Galaxy S3 mini, which sought to lower the cost, but offer all of the same software features while maintaining the design aesthetic in a smaller body.

That handset didn’t perform quite as well as its illustrious big brother, critically and commercially, so it’ll be interesting to see what Samsung comes up with when it officially unveils the Galaxy S4 mini.
